The following will describe the embodiments of the present disclosure in more detail with reference to the accompanying drawings. Although some embodiments of the present disclosure are shown in the drawings, it should be understood that the present disclosure can be implemented in various forms and should not be construed as limited to the embodiments set forth herein. On the contrary, these embodiments are provided for a more thorough and complete understanding of the present disclosure. It should be understood that the drawings and embodiments of the present disclosure are provided for illustrative purposes only and are not intended to limit the scope of protection of the present disclosure.

Various embodiments are described throughout herein, and any type of embodiment may be included in any section/subsection. Furthermore, embodiments described in any section/subsection may be combined in any manner with any other embodiments described in the same section/subsection and/or different sections/subsections.
In the description of the embodiments of the present disclosure, the term “including” and the like should be understood as non-exclusive inclusion, that is, “including but not limited to”. The term “based on” should be understood as “based at least in part on.” The term “one embodiment” or “the embodiment” should be understood as “at least one embodiment”.

Embodiments of the present disclosure may relate to data of a user, acquisition and/or use of data, etc. These aspects are in accordance with the corresponding laws and regulations and related provisions. In embodiments of the present disclosure, all data collection, acquisition, processing, forwarding, use and the like are carried out under the user's awareness and confirmation. Accordingly, when implementing the embodiments of the present disclosure, the user should be informed of the types of data or information that may be involved, a usage range, a usage scenario, and the like in an appropriate manner according to relevant laws and regulations, and then authorization of the user is obtained. The specific informing and/or authorization manner may vary according to actual situations and application scenarios, and the scope of the present disclosure is not limited in this aspect.
In the present description and the embodiments, the personal information processing is performed on the basis of legality (for example, obtaining the consent of the subject of the personal information or being necessary for the fulfillment of a contract, etc.), and is performed only within a predetermined range or a predetermined stipulation. The user rejects personal information other than the necessary information required for processing the basic function, and the use of the basic function by the user will not be affected.
As mentioned briefly above, generally, a user may interact with various types of virtual objects, for example, a user may attack a virtual object using a variety of virtual props (e. g., various virtual props such as guns, bombs, knives, magic balls, etc.).
Accordingly, in a virtual scene, if a virtual object is attacked, it is generally necessary to present an effect under attack (for example, playing an action when being attacked, changing a survival state of the virtual object (reducing the life value), etc.). Conventionally, the presentation of effect under attack may also be avoided based on the virtual props and/or skills used by the virtual object under attack. In some scenarios, the virtual object may absorb or eliminate an attack by using a particular virtual prop or skill. For example, an attack may cause 10 points of damage to a life value of a virtual object, and the virtual object may reduce the damage to zero through a specific prop. In some scenarios, an attacked virtual object may rebound, through a particular virtual prop, the received attack proportionally to a virtual object that launches the attack. For example, a virtual object A is attacked by virtual object B, which may cause 10 points of damage to the life value of virtual object A. The virtual object A may make the attack to be rebounded to virtual object B through a particular virtual prop, and may cause 5 points of damage to the life value of virtual object B. In some aspects, the attacked virtual object may also attack other virtual objects based on damage corresponding to the attack. For example, a damage to a life value of another virtual object caused by a next attack launched by the attacked virtual object may be increased. However, the manners in which virtual props and/or skills are rebounded in these conventional approaches are relatively limited. This will make the interactive manners of the user when controlling the virtual object to execute actions generally simple, and affect user's interactive experience.
Embodiments of the present disclosure propose an interactive control scheme. According to various embodiments of the present disclosure, a virtual element moving towards a first virtual object in a virtual scene and being generated based on a first action for the first virtual object is displayed. In response to the virtual element moving to a first range associated with the first virtual object, a moving direction of the virtual element is changed based on orientation information associated with the first virtual object. A second virtual object in the virtual scene acted on by the virtual element is determined based on the changed moving direction of the virtual element. A first effect determined based on the first action is applied to the second virtual object. In this way, the motion forms of the virtual element in the virtual scene may be extended, thereby improving the user's interactive experience in the virtual scene.
Various example implementations of the solution will be further described in detail below with reference to the accompanying drawings. For explaining principles and ideas of embodiments of the present disclosure, some of the following descriptions will refer to the field of games. However, it will be understood that this is merely an example and is not intended to limit the scope of the present disclosure in any way. Embodiments of the present disclosure can be applied to various fields of simulation, emulation, virtual reality, augmented reality, and the like.
Such electronic devices 110 may include, for example, appropriate types of sensors for detecting user gestures. For example, the electronic device 110 may include, for example, a touch screen for detecting various types of gestures made by a user on the touch screen. Additionally or alternatively, the electronic device 110 may also include other suitable types of sensing devices, such as proximity sensors, to detect various types of gestures made by the user within a predetermined distance above the screen.
It should be understood that although the electronic device 110 is shown as a portable device in
For example, the electronic device 110 may include a display screen for screen display, and a game console for screen rendering and game control.
In such scenarios, the electronic device 110 may, for example, utilize other suitable input devices to enable interaction. For example, the electronic device 110 may interact via a communicatively coupled interaction device such as a keyboard, mouse, joystick, game pad, etc.
Continuously referring to
It should be appreciated that the user interface 120 may be generated locally at the electronic device 110 or may be based on an image received by the electronic device 110 from a remote device (e. g., a cloud game host).
It should be appreciated that the structure and functionality of the environment 100 are described for exemplary purposes only and are not intended to imply any limitation on the scope of the disclosure.
In order to represent the display control mechanism of the screens in the interface more intuitively, a game scene is taken as an example in the following description, and the embodiments of the present disclosure may enable the user to understand the corresponding screen display principle by presenting an example interface.
As an example, the interfaces shown in
In the interfaces shown in
In the interfaces shown in
In an embodiment of the present disclosure, the electronic device 110 displays a virtual element moving towards a first virtual object in a virtual scene. The first action may be, for example, an attack action. The first virtual object is a virtual object attacked by the first action (namely, a virtual object being attacked). The virtual element herein is generated based on the first action for the first virtual object, and the number thereof may be at least one. In some embodiments, the virtual elements in the virtual scene include ballistic elements (e. g., bullets, magic balls, cards, etc.) that have a flight trajectory (which may also be referred to as an attack ballistic). In this case, the virtual element may indicate that a flight trajectory of the ballistic element directed towards the first virtual object, i. e., it may indicate a trajectory associated with the first virtual object. For example, when the virtual object A uses a gun to fire a bullet towards the virtual object B (since the virtual object A may fire continuously, there may be a plurality of bullets), the virtual object B is the first virtual object, and the attack action of the virtual object A firing a bullet is the first action for the virtual object B, and the virtual element moving towards the first virtual object in the virtual scene may include a bullet directed towards the virtual object B and a ballistic effect of the bullet presented in the virtual scene.
In response to the virtual element moving to a first range associated with the first virtual object, the electronic device 110 changes a moving direction of the virtual element based on the orientation information associated with the first virtual object. The changed moving direction of the virtual element may be associated with the orientation information of the first virtual object. The first range may be a fixed range set in advance. In some embodiments, the changed moving direction of the virtual element may be the same as the orientation information of the first virtual object. In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may also determine a reflection angle between the changed moving direction and the orientation information of the first virtual object based on the moving direction before the virtual element changes and the orientation information of the first virtual object. Then, the electronic device 110 determines the changed moving direction of the virtual element based on the reflection angle.
Further, the electronic device 110 determines a second virtual object in the virtual scene acted on by the virtual element, based on the changed moving direction of the virtual element. The second virtual object is another virtual object different from the first virtual object. In some embodiments, the second virtual object may be a virtual object that performs the first action for the first virtual object. Exemplarily, if the virtual object A uses a gun to fire a bullet towards the virtual object B, after the bullet moves to the first range associated with the virtual object B, the moving direction changes based on the orientation information of the virtual object B. The changed moving direction may be, for example, a direction rebound back towards the virtual object A. In some embodiments, the second virtual object may also be a virtual object other than the virtual object performing the first action for the first virtual object. Exemplarily, if the virtual object A uses a gun to fire a bullet towards the virtual object B, after the bullet moves to the first range associated with the virtual object B, the moving direction changes based on the orientation information of the virtual object B. The changed moving direction may be a direction facing the virtual object C, for example.
The electronic device 110 applies a first effect determined based on the first action to the second virtual object. If the first action is an attack action, the first effect is an effect under attack corresponding to the attack action, where the first effect herein may be, for example, life value reduction, dizziness, rigidity, knockout, setback, and the like. Exemplarily, if the changed moving direction of the bullet fired by the virtual object A towards the virtual object B using a gun is the direction directed towards the virtual object C, the effect under attack by the bullet may be applied to the virtual object C, for example, the life value of the virtual object C may be reduced.
As shown in
It should be noted that, in a confrontation game scenario (for example, in a MOBA game scenario), a plurality of camps may exist in a virtual scenario. A virtual object in any camp can only attack other virtual objects in camps other than the one in which the virtual object is located. Thus, in some embodiments, the virtual object 210 that launches the virtual element 211 and the virtual object 220 which virtual element 211 is directed to correspond to different camps in the virtual scene.
In response to the virtual element 211 to moving to a first range associated with the virtual object 220, the electronic device 110 changes a moving direction of the virtual element 211 based on orientation information associated with the virtual object 220.
In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may change by default the moving direction of the virtual element 221 directed towards the virtual object 220 and moving to the first range associated with the virtual object 220. In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 changes the moving direction of the virtual element 211 directed towards the virtual object 220 and moving to the first range associated with the virtual object 220, only if the virtual object 220 performs a target action.
In some embodiments, in response to a target operation of the user corresponding to the virtual object 220, the electronic device 110 may control the virtual object 220 to perform the target action. The target operation herein may be, for example, a prop use operation, a skill release operation, and so on. Correspondingly, the target action may be, for example, a prop use action, a skill release action, and so on. The target motion here may be a defense action. The electronic device 110 determines to change the moving direction of the virtual element 211 towards the virtual object 220, in response to the virtual object 220 performing the target motion.
It will be appreciated that, in response to an action duration reaching a predetermined length of time, or the virtual object 220 stopping performing the target action in response to the user operation, the electronic device 110 no longer changes the moving direction of the virtual element 211 moving towards the virtual object 220.
In some embodiments, the first range here may be, for example, a range in which a circle of a predetermined radius centered on the virtual object 220 is located, such as a circle range centered on the virtual object 220 shown in
In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may further define a range for triggering the virtual element 211 to change direction, that is, further define a range for triggering the virtual element 211 to change direction on the basis of the first range. In particular, the electronic device 110 may display a defense element associated with virtual object 220 in response to a second action associated with virtual object 220. The second action herein may be a target action executed by the virtual object 220 (namely, the prop use action and the skill release action described above), and may also be a protection action performed on the virtual object 220 by other virtual objects in the same camp as the virtual object 220 (for example, another virtual object releases a protection skill to the virtual object 220). The defense element herein may include, for example, a shield element, a shield cover element, etc. As shown in
In some embodiments, in response to the virtual element 211 moving to the first range associated with the virtual object 220 and the virtual element 211 matching the angular range, the electronic device 110 may change the moving direction of the virtual element 211 based on the orientation information associated with the virtual object 220. Exemplarily, in response to the virtual element 211 moving to the first range associated with the virtual object 220 and the angle range of the virtual element 211 is in the angle range of the defective element 223, the electronic device 110 may determine that a landing point of the virtual element 211 is a certain part of the defense element 223. The electronic device 110 then determines that the moving direction of the virtual element 211 can be changed.
In some embodiments, in response to the virtual element 211 moving to the first range associated with the virtual object 220 and the virtual element 211 not matching the angular range, the electronic device 110 may apply a second effect corresponding to the first action to the virtual object 220. Exemplarily, in response to the virtual element 211 moving to the first range associated with the virtual object 220 and the angular range of the virtual element 211 being in another range other than the angular range of the defense element 223, the electronic device 110 may determine that the landing point of the virtual element 211 is on a body of the virtual object 220 that the defense element 223 failed to protect (for example, behind the virtual object 220). Then, the electronic device 110 may apply a second effect associated with the virtual element 211 to the virtual object 220 (e. g., reducing the life value of the virtual object 220, stunning the virtual object 220, etc.).
In some embodiments, as shown in
In some embodiments, the defense element 223 has a corresponding attribute value, which may also be referred to as a defense value, an endurance value, or the like. The electronic device 110 may determine an attribute value associated with the first action, that is, a damage value that the virtual element 211 could cause (that is, a numerical value corresponding to a degree of changing an attribute value of the virtual object 220 by a certain degree). For example, if the virtual element 211 can reduce a life value of the virtual object 220 by 100 points, the damage value of the virtual element 211 is 100 points. The electronic device 110 may compare the damage value with the defense value of the defense element. Specifically, in response to the damage value being less than the defense value, electronic device 110 may update the defense value of the defense element based on the damage value. For example, if the damage value of the virtual element 211 is 100 points and the defense value of the defense element 223 is 500 points, the electronic device 110 may update the defense value based on the damage value, and the updated defense value may be, for example, 400 points.
In some embodiments, electronic device 110 may stop displaying the defense elements 223 in response to the damage value reaching the attribute value of defense elements 223. Exemplarily, if the damage value of the virtual element 211 is 100 points and the defense value of the defense element 223 is 50 points, the electronic device 110 may determine that the virtual element 211 may break through the defense element 223, and the electronic device 110 stops displaying the defense element 223. In some embodiments, in this case, the electronic device 110 may present a corresponding special effect (e. g., a shattering special effect of the shield element) to prompt the user that the defense element 223 will not be displayed.
In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may also stop displaying defense element 223 in response to a duration of defense element 223 reaching a threshold. The threshold herein may be preset (e. g., 10 seconds, 20 seconds, etc.) In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may display a duration prompt element 224 in interface 200B to prompt the duration of the defense element 223. The electronic device 110 may decrease the length of the duration prompt element 224 in response to an increase in the duration of defense elements 223. Further, in response to the duration reaching the threshold, electronic device 110 stops displaying the duration prompt element 224 and the defense element 223.
It shall be noted that as long as the defense element 223 is still displayed, the electronic device 110 may change the moving direction of the virtual element 211 that is directed toward the virtual object 220, moving to the first range of the virtual object 220 and matching the angle of the defense elements 223.
Regarding the manner of change in the moving direction, in some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may determine the target orientation of the virtual object 220 based on orientation information associated with the virtual object 220. The target orientation herein may be, for example, a direction directly in front of the virtual object 220. In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may change the moving direction of the virtual element 211 based on the target orientation such that the changed moving direction is identical to the target orientation, or the angular difference between the changed moving direction and the target orientation is less than a threshold. In particular, the electronic device 110 may determine a direction range based on the target orientation. This direction range may indicate a range of angular difference between the changed moving direction and the target orientation, e. g., plus or minus 10 degrees. This direction range may be represented as a sector with the target orientation as a centerline. The electronic device 110 may determine a direction from the direction range as the changed moving direction of the virtual element 211. In some embodiments, determining the direction from the direction range may be performed randomly or according to a certain rule (for example, from one side of the range to the other side). Compared to the manner in which the changed moving direction is made to be the same as the target orientation, determining the changed moving direction based on the direction range may make it possible that in the presence of a plurality of virtual elements, the plurality of virtual elements for which the moving directions were changed do not overlap. In this way, a user can intuitively view a plurality of virtual elements whose moving directions are changed, thereby improving user's interaction experience.
In some embodiments, the process of changing the moving direction of the virtual element 211 may be considered as a process in which the virtual element 211 is rebounded by the virtual object 220. In this case, the virtual element 211 has a same bullet trajectory style before and after the change in the moving direction. The bullet trajectory style may be, for example, a style of the trajectory of the virtual element 211 during the movement. The trajectory style may be the same, for example, the color of the trajectory during the movement may be the same.
In some embodiments, in order to distinguish the virtual elements 211 before and after the change in the moving direction, in response to the change in the moving direction, the electronic device 110 may further adjust the color of the virtual elements 211. As shown in
The electronic device 110 may determine, based on the moving direction of the virtual element 221 with changed moving direction, a virtual object in the virtual scene that is acted upon by the virtual element 221 with changed moving direction. This virtual object acted upon by the virtual element 221 with changed moving direction may also be referred to as a second virtual object. In some embodiments, the determination of the second virtual object acted on by the changed virtual element 221 does not depend on the third virtual object that makes the first action. That is, the determination of the second virtual object depends on the movement of the changed virtual element 221, and the determination logic is independent of the third virtual object that makes the first action. In some cases, the second virtual object may be a third virtual object that makes the first action; and in some other cases, the second virtual object may also be different from the third virtual object.
As shown in
The electronic device 110 may determine a first effect based on an action executed by the virtual object 210, and taking the action as an attack action as an example, the first effect is an effect under attack. The effect under attack may be, for example, reducing a life value, stun, knock out, etc.
As shown in
In some embodiments, prior to applying the first effect to virtual object 230, the electronic device 110 also needs to determine whether the camp in which virtual object 230 is located is the same as the object in which virtual object 220 is located. It may be appreciated that the virtual element 221 with changed moving direction may be considered as an attack launched by the virtual object 220. Therefore, the virtual element 221 with changed moving direction causes an attack effect only on a virtual object in a camp different from that of the virtual object 220. It may be understood that the virtual object 230 and the virtual object 210 may be virtual objects in a same camp, or may be virtual objects in different camps (for example, in a case that more than two camps are included, the virtual objects 210, 220, and 230 may be in three different camps, respectively).
Regarding the manner of determining the first effect, in some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may change, based on the first action, an attribute value associated with the virtual object 230 by a first degree, as the first effect applied to the virtual object 230. The first action here is expected to change an attribute value associated with the virtual object 220 by a second degree. The first degree may be a value less than the second degree and determined based on the second degree. Here, the attribute value may be, for example, a life value, a dizziness duration, a back-off distance of the virtual object, and the like. The electronic device 110 may determine a second effect associated with the virtual element 211 and expected to act on the virtual object 220, where the second effect may be, for example, decreasing the life value of the virtual object 220 by 100 points. Then, the electronic device 110 may determine, based on the second effect, a first effect of the virtual element 221 with changed moving direction that acts on the virtual object 230. The first effect of the virtual element 221 with changed moving direction acting on the virtual object 230 may be, for example, reducing the life value of the virtual object 230 by 50 points. Alternatively and/or additionally, in some embodiments, the first effect and the second effect may be the same effect (i. e., the action of the virtual element 221 with changed moving direction performed on the virtual object 230 will reduce the life value of the virtual object 230 by 100 points), and/or the first effect may also be an effect that is larger than the second effect (e. g., the first effect of the virtual element 221 with changed moving direction acting on the virtual object 230 may be, for example, reducing the life value of the virtual object 230 by 200 point). The present disclosure is not limited in this regard.
In some embodiments, the electronic device 110 may also change the virtual elements from different virtual objects and directed towards the virtual object 220. As shown in
The virtual object 210 and the virtual object 240 may perform an attack action to launch the virtual element 211 and the virtual element 241 to virtual object 220, respectively. In response to the virtual element 211 and/or the virtual element 241 moving to a first range of virtual object 220 and the moving directions matching the angular ranges of the defense element 223, electronic device 110 may present attacked indicator elements 213-1 and 213-2, respectively, at the contact locations with defense elements 223.
In a case that the defense element 223 is displayed, the electronic device 110 may change the movement directions of the virtual elements 211 and 241 based on the orientation information of the virtual object 220. In a case where it is determined that both the virtual element 221 with changed moving direction and the virtual element 225 with changed moving direction are directed to the virtual object 230, the electronic device 110 may determine an effect to be applied to the virtual object 230 and apply the effect to the virtual object 230 based on the attack effect corresponding to each of the virtual element 210 and the virtual element 241.
In addition, the interface 200C may also present the bullet trajectory 252 of the virtual element 240 and the bullet trajectory 226 of the virtual element 225 with changed moving direction. In some embodiments, the bullet trajectory style of the bullet trajectory 242 is the same as that of the bullet trajectory 226.
In conclusion, according to various embodiments of the present disclosure, a moving direction of a virtual element moving towards a virtual object can be changed, and motion forms of the movement of the virtual element in a virtual scene can be extended, thereby improving user's interaction experience in the virtual scene.
